I looked up to the burning sky I never bothered to ask when I get to breathe And so I dream of an ocean on the the other side But I waste all the reverie I can’t seem to find the stars tonight And silently I tell myself I tried Could you ask me to stay just once Is there something I have to say To make you believe in this waking dream? Do you hear me calling out from in between? No, I thought I’d never be In the depths of the darkness bleeding Through the cracks in the air of time Oh, why? Why’d I go alone? I dreamed of that ocean night after night But now all I see is mirrored ice Fathoms below the glacier I want to believe it’s real this time I followed that echo down A chasm of colours I’ll never climb out I buried my shadow, don’t wait for me now I’ll stay entombed till the rivers run out Said I’d never feel the Sun like you do Still it burns me up from the inside out I swore there was something that I’d done wrong I carried myself through through the nights alone Calloused to all the fear you tried To set into me, I’ll stitch up the seams that I left through At the edge of the cliff let’s sit for a while Could you ask me to stay just once Is there something I have to say To make you believe in this waking dream? Do you hear me calling out from in between? No, I thought I’d never be In the depths of the darkness bleeding Through the cracks in the air of time Oh, why? Why’d I go alone? I dreamed of that ocean night after night But now all I see is mirrored ice Fathoms below the glacier I want to believe it’s real this time I followed that echo down A chasm of colours I’ll never climb out I buried my shadow, don’t wait for me now I’ll stay entombed till the rivers run out
